A
Growing Faster and Better
As farming technology grows increasingly smarter, robots are emerging to advance smart agriculture worldwide. Apart from GEAIR, a domestically-made model, many other innovative robots are under development globally. They operate continuously at a low cost, ensuring full and consistent area coverage.
GEAIR
GEAIR is the world’s first robot capable of completing the entire crop breeding(培植)process. It significantly accelerates and boosts the efficiency of hybrid breeding. Successful hybrid breeding relies on performing repeated cross-pollination(授粉)within a short window before flowers bloom. The team addressed key challenges like navigating foliage and detecting stigmas by training a model with 12,800 images. GEAIR achieves 85.1% accuracy in identifying target structures and completes pollination in just 15 seconds per flower.
Vulcan
This weeding robot adopts bright lights and a fast camera to capture clear images, making sure it spots and removes weeds accurately. It targets weeds without harming crops, using powerful, high-speed actuators for reliable results. Farmers can operate it easily from inside the cab(驾驶室)and make quick changes.
TerraSentia
TerraSentia is a fully automated robot that keeps track of crops during growth. It helps improve farmers’ understanding of plant health and productivity throughout the season and enables farmers to breed crops with better drought resistance and stable production.
Virgo
Virgo is a tomato-harvesting robot. With sensors and cameras as its eyes, and an AI “brain”, it can operate in large commercial greenhouses at any hour, detecting which tomatoes are ripe for picking. Its gentle arm picks tomatoes without injuring plants and poses no safety risk to nearby workers. The robot’s “fingers” are made from food-safe, easy-to-clean plastic.
21. Why are speed and accuracy especially important for GEAIR?
A. To lower overall costs. | B. To ensure high-quality blooming. |
C. To achieve full coverage. | D. To meet the pollination requirement. |
22. Which robot is specifically described as self-operating?
A. GEAIR.B. Vulcan.C. TerraSentia.D. Virgo.
23. What shared feature do Virgo and Vulcan have?
A. Gentle handling. | B. Reliable navigation. |
C. Smart appearance. | D. Consistent performance. |
B
When my husband Paul talked me into adopting a dog, I was filled with doubts. At 65, I thought we should be planning trips, not cleaning up dog hair. I never imagined I could grow fond of a dog, especially not the scruffy one with a torn ear from the shelter. I agreed only for Paul’s sake.
Casey burst into our lives like a storm. Our morning walks turned into a daily struggle. Driven by his sharp sense of smell, he would tug me toward every scrap of leftover pizza or chicken nugget lying on the ground. At the mere sight of a squirrel, he would fly into a frenzy, leaping and howling, as I struggled desperately to hold him in check. I felt worn-out and defeated, repeatedly met with the mocking question, “Who’s really walking whom?”
Hope arrived with Laurie, a young dog trainer. She explained that Casey was a hound—born to hunt. Laurie taught us not to yell, but to use a firm, confident tone to break his focus. I practiced calling out, “Casey!” with authority, something that did not come naturally to me. When he listened, he would get a treat along with a warm “Good boy”. It was a new language we were learning together.
Slowly, the chaos began to abate. I grew familiar with his quirks, and he began responding to my voice. The constant pulling transformed into a gentle rhythm except for occasional bursts of excitement. The clink of his collar tags kept time with my footsteps. My frustration softened into understanding, and eventually, into affection. Our walks were no longer a clash but a teamwork.
The greatest gift, however, was inner peace. I had always been a light, restless sleeper. One sleepless night, I found Casey sound asleep on the couch, breathing deeply and steadily. I rested my head against his warm chest, and for the first time, my worries melted away along with his calm, rhythmic breathing.
This unexpected companion, once a source of anxiety, had quietly taught me how to find rest and acceptance. He was no longer just Paul’s dog; he had become the beating heart of our home.
24. How did the author initially feel about walking the dog?
A. Panicked.B. Easy.C. Indifferent.D. Frustrated.
25. What led to Casey’s misbehavior on early walks?
A. He had little familiarity with walking routes. | B. He couldn’t resist his inborn urge to explore. |
C. He failed to focus in the absence of a trainer. | D. He disliked the author’s way of handling him. |
26. What does the underlined word “abate” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Cease.B. Unfold.C. Fade.D. Develop.
27. What was the greatest gift the author received from Casey?
A. A positive mindset. | B. A precious friendship. |
C. A sense of belonging. | D. A cure for restlessness. |
C
Insects are disappearing. The world has 25 percent fewer terrestrial insects now than in 1990. This includes those we rely on to pollinate our crops. If we don’t solve this problem very soon, some species will disappear.
There are many causes for the insect decline, but insecticides are a major part of the problem. Those used today are longer lasting and up to 10,000 times more toxic than some that were banned in the 1970s. Adding to the problem is that these pesticides are now applied to crops as a precaution and used whether pests are present or not.
Overall, the amount of pesticide applied to the land is decreasing, but this is a grossly misleading statistic. A recent paper found that, between 2005 and 2015, there was a 40 percent reduction in the amount of pesticide applied to crops measured by weight. But because modern insecticides are so much more toxic, the global toxicity of treated land to pollinating insects has more than doubled in the same period.
To the public, one often-touted approach is to use pesticide-free pest control methods. These varied techniques are gathered under the name of integrated pest management (IPM) and have been around for decades. They offer effective crop protection and include methods such as crop rotation and the use of natural predators. But their adoption has been incredibly slow, because spraying pesticides is viewed as an easier option. As a result, IPM methods are unfortunately seldom used today.
Without a quick fix, we argue instead that we need a subtle change in focus, away from killing pests and towards protecting crops. By using the minimal dose we need to protect crops, we could reduce the amount of insecticide to a fraction of what is used today. Farmers would benefit from these changes. They would spend less money on pesticides and improve crop production by keeping healthy pollinator insects about. Reducing insecticide doses won’t solve the insect decline problem, but it is a move that could win us time to make food production more sustainable and cultivate farmlands in a greener way. And that will allow insects to recover.
28. According to the passage, which of the statements is TRUE?
A. The toxicity in insecticides used before persists longer. | B. Toxic-free insecticides are now used to keep pests away. |
C. The amount of toxicity used per acre is less than before. | D. Currently-used pesticides are much more toxic than before. |
29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “often-touted” in paragraph 5?
A. Broadly-publicized. | B. Generally-proved. |
C. Recently-created. | D. Frequently-criticized. |
30. What is the best way to treat the insect decline?
A. To research and develop new pesticides. | B. To protect crops rather than killing out insects. |
C. To raise large-scale natural predators of insects. | D. To shift to the IPM pesticide-controlling method. |
31. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To propose a practical shift of agricultural practice. | B. To present conflicting evidence about insect decline. |
C. To criticize farmers for their over-reliance on spraying. | D. To alert readers to the hidden danger of modern pesticides. |
D
I’ve previously written that artificial intelligence operates differently from the human mind. My idea of anti-intelligence is an attempt to describe that difference more precisely. When people hear the prefix “anti,” they tend to assume opposition or inferiority. However, what we’re encountering in large language models (LLM) is not a weaker form of thinking but a fundamentally different architecture operating behind the same medium.
A recent paper in Nature Machine Intelligence notes that LLMs often behave in ways that are strikingly realistic yet remain fundamentally “unhuman” in their underlying structure. The word “unhuman” highlights the strange condition where language similar to human expression comes from a system that has none of those human experiences, while human mind is a system in which meaning arises from our lived experience. When we speak or write, our words carry marks of that experience. The “anti” part of “anti-intelligence” is that LLMs operate without that continuity, but generate sentences through statistical relationships within vast collections of information.
Current discussion around AI assumes that humans and machines occupy the same range of intelligence. And then, the debate quickly turns to whether machines will outperform us or when artificial systems might eventually outthink humans. Those questions feel natural because we imagine a single line where intelligence progresses—and where humans and AI sit along points on that single line. But that may be wrong. If AI operates in a different way altogether, the comparison itself becomes misleading. Human cognition brings experience, consequences and judgment into every thought. Artificial systems bring pattern recognition. When these two interact, the results can be productive and even transformative.
Scientific progress often begins with what looks like a mistake. The imaginary number “i” once appeared to be a mathematical curiosity before it became essential to modern imaging technologies. In such cases, the discovery did not deny what scientists already understood. It expanded the conceptual space in which that knowledge made sense. Anti-intelligence may represent a similar expansion. What LLMs reveal isn’t that machines have become intelligent in the human sense, but that language itself can now operate within a system that has no mind behind it.
32. What does the author indicate by coining the term “anti-intelligence”?
A. It is a weaker version of human thinking. | B. It will eventually outperform humanintelligence. |
C. It detects statistical patterns from lived experience. | D. It operates without inner processing of the experience. |
33. Which of the following best describes the author’s view on the interaction between human cognition and AI?
A. Concerned.B. Dismissive.C. Optimistic.D. Reserved.
34. Why does the author mention the imaginary number i in the last paragraph?
A. To prove that LLMs are a mathematical curiosity. | B. To show that new concepts can expand our understanding. |
C. To argue that AI will become as essential as modern imaging. | D. To illustrate that scientific progress often comes from mistakes. |
35. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. Anti-intelligence: How LLMs Use Statistics to Generate Feelings | B. Anti-intelligence: When Language Operates Independently of Mind |
C. Anti-intelligence: How Statistical Patterns Replace Lived Experience | D. Anti-intelligence: The Risk of Machines Imitating Human Expression |

Globalization has connected the world in ways our grandparents could scarcely have imagined. Products, ideas, and cultural expressions now flow across borders with unprecedented(前所未有的)speed. 36On one hand, this exchange enriches societies with new foods, music, art forms, and perspectives; on the other, it raises concerns about cultural homogenization—the fear that local traditions and identities will be swallowed by a global monoculture.
Critics of globalization often point to the spread of American fast-food chains, Hollywood movies, and English-language pop music as evidence of cultural imperialism. 37In Japan, for example, baseball—an American import—has been thoroughly Japanized over more than a century, becoming intertwined with local values of discipline, teamwork, and respect.
Moreover, globalization can actually revitalize(复兴)local cultures rather than destroy them. When a traditional craft or performance gains international recognition, it often experiences a revival at home. 38The global popularity of yoga is another example. It has funded the preservation of classical yoga traditions in India that might otherwise have declined.
The key to maintaining cultural diversity in a globalized world may lie in what sociologists call “glocalization”—the adaptation of global influences to local contexts. 39When communities feel secure in their cultural identity, they are more likely to engage with outside influences creatively rather than defensively.
40What is different today is the speed and scale of the exchange, not the fundamental process. The challenge for the twenty-first century is not to stop cultural cross-pollination—an impossible task—but to ensure that the benefits of cultural exchange are shared equitably and that no culture is forced to sacrifice its identity in the process.
A. But history shows that cultures rarely adopt foreign influences on a large scale without adapting them to local sensibilities.
B. The international interest in traditional Chinese embroidery(刺绣)has led to a surge of young people in China learning it.
C. This phenomenon recognizes that cultural exchange is never a one-way street but a process of innovative adaptation.
D. It has also prompted many governments to restrict foreign cultural imports to protect local industries.
E. This has sparked an intense debate about whether cultural diversity is under threat.
F. This is true when local traditions are too weak to resist external pressures.
G. Ultimately, cultures have always borrowed from one another.

Little remains of the original edition of Yongle Dadian, an encyclopedia completed in 1408 after 56(authorize) by Emperor Yongle during the Ming Dynasty. From 57is left of the handwritten tome(著作), it is not difficult to imagine just how impressive it was. It not only charts the emperor’s ambitions, but acts as a 58(refer) work for culture and knowledge in China. Though generally referred to as 59“encyclopedia” in the English-speaking world, Yongle Dadian is distinct from modern encyclopedias that provide summarized introductions. It is known as leishu (“category book”), 60lengthy citations or entire works, rather than excerpts, are categorized based on themes and the pronunciation of key words. More than 600 leishu works 61(write) in ancient China, the oldest of them dating to the 3rd century.
In imperial times, Yongle Dadian was meant 62(read) only by emperors. In 1403, 63(win) a civil war and seized the throne from his nephew, Zhu Di appointed Xie Jin, chief of the cabinet, to compile the encyclopedia 64an attempt to calm intellectuals and academics. Xie handed in a draft, but the emperor was not satisfied because he thought it mainly focused on ancient classics and was not 65(include) enough. Yao Guangxiao, a monk and a political adviser to Zhu Di, took over the job as editor-in-chief. For the Chinese, it embodies the brilliance and cultural resilience of Chinese civilization.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Two winters ago, my college roommate Paul was gradually losing the ability to do almost everything else. He could still walk, but only with a cane. He could eat solid foods, though with trouble, and could drink the medication powder he mixed into water—but he began coughing more and more as he labored to swallow anything.
Though his body was failing him, Paul was determined to keep our bond free of sorrow. Through messages, he sent us texts encouraging Evan and me to spare him no humor during the time we had left. So jokes, GIFs and memes became the rule. Then he began showing us the “art” he was making. He used his fingers, technically, but not in the way an artist holds a brush; Paul merely typed the words of what he wanted to see into Midjourney, an AI image generator. Seconds later, Midjourney produced four images onto his screen. To us, they looked like real paintings and that no painter would create this way made it all the more humorous.
Pretty quickly, Evan and I started making AI pictures with our own prompts too. We made thousands. Any random thought that crossed our minds, Midjourney absorbed and spat out. Later, beginning that January with an image called “Tension at the Golden Corral buffet.”, we started talking about putting together a 2024 calendar of our AI artwork. It was full of strange creatures and scenes. The calendar was a piece of physical media that the three of us could share throughout the year. We also planned to make a new calendar for 2025 and compile our favorite works into a memory book.
I could probably never argue in favor of what the technology of artificial intelligence might ultimately bring, or its future effect on artists, writers and culture. It does scare me a little. But one thing I am absolutely sure of: AI brought precious warmth and laughter to my friend Paul struggling with ALS(渐冻症).
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右。
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: As Paul’s health slowly worsened, our AI creation became our closest bond. Paragraph 2: We spread our printed-out calendars over the desk, with those magic-filled pictures. |
